Corayne is a pirate’s daughter and wants to go on adventure with her mother. She believes she can do a lot of good for her mother and her mother’s crew, but her mother wants her to stay where she is to be safe. She is found by an immortal and an assassin. Soon later they find themselves with a sorceress, a bounty hunter, and a squire. Corayne is the last of an ancient line and the rag tag team are finding away to save their realm before the Queen and the Prince Consort destroy it.
I have read Red Queen, Glass Sword, and a bit of King’s Cage (I really need to finish it) before I read Realm Breaker, so I am familiar with Victoria Aveyard’s work. I loved this book more than the Red Queen series and I feel like this series is going to be epic. This book is described as a High Fantasy compared to her other work. I will admit this book has a slower pace and I typically don’t like slow books, but I still enjoyed it. I love the world building and the history of all the places we see the characters go. I love all the point of views and I’m use to a ton of point of views with all the adult fantasy I’ve been reading. My favorite character is Sorasa and she is totally a bad ass assassin. I love the villain romance between Erida and Taristan and I totally want to see more of them and their evil demise. Lastly, the banter between Sorasa and Dom was just great. Totally pick up this book!
